Somerset Second Eleven have suffered the effects of the weather on both of the first two days of their three day championship match against Yorkshire at Taunton.

Yesterday the visitors scored 250 for 3 before the rains fell to put paid to the day just before teatime.

Today play did not get underway until 1.30pm, and then after just 8.5 overs the rains fell again and play was abandoned for the day with Yorkshire having taken their score onto 290 for 3.

With heavy rain having fallen since play ended, both teams could well face another frustrating day on Friday.
